ComQi's Esteban Perez

Esteban Perez, sales manager of Latin American Markets will be talking at the event for the first time, sharing his knowledge in this market. He said: “In the Spanish speaking countries the digital signage trends basically started with strong technological components mainly provided by dedicated hardware and software companies. Therefore Network owners did not look at Digital Signage Network as a tool to communicate or advertise. However today, and for the past two years, there has been a major change in the DS industry trend moving away from the technological dominance in favor of communication trends, be it for media advertising, informational, and also entertainment purposes.”

The speaker line up for the Third Mexican Digital Signage Forum has been announced:

  • 10:00 Registration
  • 11:00 Keynotes
  • 11:30 to 12:15 Return on Investment Mauricio Villaseñor, Intel

  • 16:00 to 17:00 LatAm Market Trends by Esteban Perez, ComQi
Perez concluded:  “I hope that some of this DOOH Latin market trends can help to focus the strategies of the sector. I will summarize at least what we mostly perceive in our daily work within the digital signage business and the Latin market I personally believe this are very positive trends that represent a lot of interesting business opportunities and fields with great potential for development in Latin America, which adds an extra attraction to digital signage.”
